I would love to have the facilities to produce my own 135, 120 roll, and 4x5 large format sheet films, I'm starting to search through patents on color film compositions and I have seen the Photographers Formulary has "Photographic Emulsion Making, Coating and Testing" Book & Dvd's By Ron Mowrey for sale.
